When Fire Meets Chaos

Discord awoke with the sunrise leaking into the room. He remembered last night and got up to look around for Tirek. He wasn't anywhere. Discord, thinking it was a dream sat back down on the sofa.
"What a weird dream." Discord mumbled to himself as he yawned. Then he hears foot steps coming down from the the stairway. Fluttershy was slowly walking down the stairs with her pink robe on.
"Good morning, Discord." Fluttershy soothed. "You look really tired. Did you get enough sleep?"

Discord glanced at Fluttershy for a moment. "...Yes..." Discord stuttered.

She smiled softly and tilted her head to the side. "Well, I hope you are not too tired for the picnic we are having today."

Discord perked up. "A picnic?"

"Yes. Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Spike, Rarity, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie are all coming to the picnic for lunch. Would you like to join?" Fluttershy replied.

"Ummm....I'll think about...Oh, fine." Discord replied with a smile. He thought a nice picnic would sooth everything down and have him forget the dream he had last night. Or so he thought.

Later that morning the mane six and Spike gathered around a flowery hill by outside of Ponyville.

Applejack brought the food and Rarity brought the dishes and she actually remembered the plates.

"So, do we have everything?" Spike questioned.
Pinkie hopped in front of Spike. She reached her hoof in her mane and pulled out a long plaided red and white quilt.

"Got it!" Pinkie squealed as she laid it out on the ground. She set out all of the food and dishes as well.

"Who's hungry for potato salad and dandelion sandwiches!?" Applejack hollered.

"Wait. We should wait for Discord. He'll be here soon." Fluttershy mentioned.

"Ugh. Why? He's got magic anyway. He can teleport here quickly." Rainbow Dash groaned.

"I'm here!" Discord hollered as he appeared out of nowhere.

Fluttershy smiled. "That's great. Would you like something to eat?"

"Oh, great." Rainbow Dash mumbled loudly.

"Rainbow Dash! Don't be so rude!" Fluttershy glared.

"Well, well. Grumpy Miss Skittles." Discord taunted crossing his arms.

"Don't you call me Skittles! Look at you! You are just as colorful!" Rainbow Dash yelled.

"You don't want to be called names like that, then how about this." Discord replied. He snapped his fingers making Rainbow Dash's mane greyscale. Seeing this, she grew even more angry.

"Make it back to the way it was!" Rainbow Dash hollered.

"Discord, what's the deal? You heard her. Change it back." Rarity commanded.

"Why is there always trouble when you're around?" Applejack sneered.

"Meanie Beanie!!!" Pinkie shouted.

"Girls, stop!!" Twilight yelled. Then it went silent and Discord changed her mane back. "Thank you. Now I know Discord has given us a hard time through these past years," Her friends nodded in agreement except Fluttershy. "But that doesn't mean we have to give him a hard time as well." Twilight reasoned.

"What?" Applejack questioned.

"Are you ok, Twilight?" Rarity asked nervously.

"Here we go with the lecturing." Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes.

"Seriously, girls. He's helped us in the past. He's reformed, he bookmarked all the lessons we've learned, making it easy to find the keys,"

Twilight's words made Discord smile a bit.

"And he revealed the last key so that we could stop Tirek." Twilight reasoned.

"What about his betrayal?!" Rainbow Dash hollered.

The mention of the name Tirek and his betrayal made Discord lose his smile. He felt guilt. So much guilt, he left in a flash.

Fluttershy noticed Discord's disappearance. "Discord?"

Discord headed towards his own home. His house was a cluttered chaotic mess. Just the way he liked it. The setting sun and the breeze as he flew made Discord feel calm.

I should've never betrayed my friends. What was I thinking joining that centaur.
All of these words in Discord's mind made him a bit angry. "Stupid. Stupid." Discord grunted hitting his palm on his forehead.

What made him even angrier was the fact that his feelings have been taking advantage of him. He felt very weird and his stomach ached with embarrassment.

"Why in all Equestria did I have such a dream last night?!" Discord murmured loudly as he entered his chaotic bedroom.

He lied himself on his bed which was on the ceiling. The room was getting darker since the sun was disappearing from the distance.
Discord wanted to end this terrible day. He closed his eyes slowly and finally fell asleep.
